Do you have tape management software? If so, which one? CA-1 implements the ICETPEX exit and accurately reflects estimated record counts to DFSORT. We have used this for __years__ with no problems. If you have some other tape management software, ask the vendor.
If you don't have any tape management software at all, you'll need to "fake up" your own ICETPEX exit code and somehow give a fairly accurate record count to DFSORT. If this is not possible, then __somebody__ need to be responsible to estimate the correct number and size of the SORTWKnn DD statements. There is no magic. Just hard work. -- John McKown Systems Engineer IV IT Administrative Services Group HealthMarkets® 9151 Boulevard 26 . N. Richland Hills . TX 76010 (817) 255-3225 phone .
